The moon can move oceans up and down and effect changes to currents . So there must also be some moon effects on wind and weather as well as the Sun .
One scientist said we live at the bottom of the Ocean of air . If the moon can alter the ocean heights creating tides and alter currents . Then one could argue the moon must have an effect on winds as well as the sun’s contributions to wind .
Accurate weather algorithms must include the lunar cycles ? Or are the absence of tide tables from the algorithms the reason they occasionally are wobbly ?

Although eating anything with MSG will give me wind that would make your eyes water . Just checking the gag reflexes of all onboard
